Ubuntu 12.04 Precise Pangolin

The
most user-friendly of all the distros out there, Ubuntu is the easiest
way to get into Linux. The look is similar to Mac and Windows, but
differentiates just enough to offer a new feel.

The latest
version is Ubuntu 12.04 Precise Pangolin, released in April. It comes
with the Unity interface to give a new look to the Linux desktop, making
the best use of space even on small screens. The Unity Launcher on the
left, where program shortcuts sit, is similar to the Windows 7 Superbar
or the Mac OSX Dock.

The big new feature has been the Unity Hub,
which brings powerful file search and filters called lenses. For
example, when you apply the Music Lens, you can search
through all your music using song name, music or album, without ever
opening any app. Similarly, there are lenses for documents, videos and
more continue to be developed.

Ubuntu 12.04 is a Long Term
Support (LTS) release, which means it will come with free updates and
patches for the next five years – easy enough for home users, and at the
same time, robust for the enterprise.

Download the operating system from www.ubuntu.com and
try it for yourself. Neat and easy instructions for the installation
are available on the site. And for a sneak peek at the latest Ubuntu
before installing it, try it out online at www.ubuntu.com/tour.

Good to see Ubuntu getting attention by Indian Media :)
